Feature Request: Update Graphic Style from Selection


Recommended Posts

I am one of many people who would like dynamic graphic styles which act like text styles.  But this is a feature request for something different, which works within the limitations of AffDes's existing graphic styles.

When tweaking the appearance of a drawing, it is pretty common that I want to change some aspect of a style before I settle on the final appearance.  Right now, the workflow for updating styles is pretty terrible (even ignoring the absence of dynamic graphic styles).  I make the changes to some curve or shape, then create a new style from it, delete the old style, then rename the new style to have the now-deleted old style's name.  (And, of course, reapply the new style to every element in the drawing that needs it, thus the desire for dynamic graphic styles.)  It would be significantly faster if the Styles panel hamburger menu, or the right-click context menu on individual styles, had an entry for Update Style From Selection.
